Sowing

The desire to go and preach the Gospel can not be the final purpose for the Church. The other part to the familiar verse (Matt 28:19-20) is ” and teaching them all I have said”, this should also be the desire of the church,

Reaping

…to this end we of ’T.S.H.I’ desire to work towards and help the local churches to accomplish these important steps to Gods plan in Glorifying His Son through His Church on earth. This two step process of spiritual work (’preaching of the gospel and the teaching of disciples’) should be a focused point of every local body of believers.

……can you help with this job…….?

some are still far off from His promises and need to hear the Good News of Jesus christ.

God’s Fields

God's fields are anywhere men are at, the saved and the unsaved. This is true locally or overseas.
The point of Missions is not just to know that there are fields but to know and then participate and help somehow in those fields.

Pray and seek God 's direction in your life. You never know where God will use you. Not all are called to go far away, some must stay at near fields. Not all can help with material needs but some can help; but all can pray. Please pray for laborers for the fields and where God wants you!

We know that there are many ways to help in the work of the church. Going and preaching and teaching or by helping out through giving financially or using your time in more practical ways. Building a church or a home for a missionary is a great help in working together for the Gospel. Many people are using their gifts in areas that help in opening doors with those who have yet not heard the Gospel. Teaching English or helping out medically or even teaching others how to bake are all ways we can work together for the Gospel. God can use you, so step out and see where He will lead you!

There are many ideas and plans we use to guild us in the work of the Gospel but we want to focus your attention on some points which we should never forget as we labor in Gods fields :
We hold and proclaim that the Bible is God's only clear blueprint as to how this work is to be done. Man's plans and techniques for ministry are good and wise but must be fluid in regards to the Spirits leading and to scripture's final word. Never should man's wisdom overshadow the simple principle of trusting the Holy Spirit's guidance. Also success in the work of God should never be judged by outcome, outcome is not a rule by which we measure success or lack of success. We judge success in Gods work to be obedience to the Word of God not the outcome of a ministry. As it has been from the beginning of the church it still is today: God and God alone builds His church not man's plans and techniques. Gods only request of man in this matter is that he prepare himself in obedience to be a fit vessel clean and humble in Gods eyes and He will then use us as He sees fit. What seems to men as failure is often Gods open door and blessing. We the church of God walk by faith not by sight.

The Holy Bible is God's Word and is clearly all that is needed to win the lost for Christ. Scripture therefore is the beginning and end of what the Church needs to finish it's work on this earth. Mans plans and techniques should always be open to change if needed as we fellowship with the Holy Spirit and are guided by Gods compass the scripture.

We affirm also that God uses the counsel of Godly men and women in our lives to help direct and encourage us in ministry and in our personal lives. Fellowship and working with Godly men and women may be Gods only gift of Himself in trying times. We must value the body of Christ God's precious men and women our brothers and sisters as special gifts to us helping to guide and strengthen us as we work together in Gods fields.

These are some of our thoughts for you we hope they have encouraged you in the Lord. " Proverbs 3:5-6 ..lean not on your own understanding but in all your ways acknowledge God and He will direct your path "

Learning a skill

Helping others learn something new and gain a skill that allows them to provide for there own needs may seem like a small thing but a skill not only gives hope but keeps them from being exploited. There are people that come to the rural areas in alot of S.E.Asia countries that promise a job to people but instead use the people not giving promised pay or sell them or treat them as slaves. Asia has one of the worst records of child slavery and prostitution. The high amount of foreign visitors that come to this area only makes the problem worse.

Unscrupulous people lie and trap young adults and older children because they promise them jobs that will take them away from their homes and families. Help keep families together. Click below to learn more.

Helping others go!

Our desire at T.S.H.I. is to help those that are burdened to go and serve long term or short term in over seas Missions get to their field. We have two areas of work we focus on so you can choose the best place to help. We offer work projects that are generally short term in support of established missions work and we offer placement opportunities for those that feel called to full time missions work. We will ask you to fill out our information sheet to see where you fit in. If you are considering full time missions work we will talk with your church, Pastor and elders and work together to send you out with confidence. If you feel called to support missions in a short term way let us know how you can help and we will help direct you to where you are needed and help get you there. We feel that the local church is the best provider and helper that a missionary can have. We will work with your church or churches as they send you out or with you as an individual. We set no time table for this if you have never been on a mission field or are a returning missionary our program for fellowship and getting to know each other is the same.

For short term missions work.

T.S.H.I sees the benefit in sponsoring short term mission trips for a group and individuals. We consider a short term missions trip a year or less but must be for at least two weeks. We consider these short terms very valuable for the work of missions. Not only will a trip impact you as an individual but it is very likely that your church will be also energized more for missions. If you are a person that is interested in Missions for a short term period, whether by helping directly in ministry or desiring to go and give a hand to other missionaries in practical ways such as, heading a building project , teaching English , teaching a baking class, helping in kids programs and social relief programs or helping in ministry etc.. We can present you with the needs in the ministries we help and help you get there. You will need to fill out our personal information form and take part in our fellowship time. We will contact your church and work with them in helping you go and serve as you feel led.

We at T.S.H.I will spend time to answer all your questions about us and our programs, and help you and your church understand the commitment and fellowship needed to work together to send you out to God's fields.

We have our overseas office and our Over Seas Director in Thailand. Thailand and other surrounding countries have many needs that you may be able to help in. Click below to see more.

Our work for food Program

One of the main things that takes the Father or Mother and older children away from the family is lack of income. One area we feel we can help families in is the area of food provision. We feel food is a basic need and providing healthy food at a low cost opens hearts and gives opportunity to share Christ.
We have set up a program where we will help Christian men and women oversee a work for food program in their area.

Basically the program provides an amount of food equal to one days pay one time a week but only requires the participant to work 3 hours one day a week. A good amount of food for a small amount of work. We feel that if people are willing to work then we are willing to help them. We have seen first hand many times that food programs with out an avenue that gives opportunity for the participant to work eventually leads to abuse of the system.

The average daily pay in S.E.Asia out side the bigger cities for a normal day laborer is between $1.00 to $4.00 dollars US. Please pray that this program will open hearts and help families. Click below to learn more.

One Hundred % of all gifts will be given to the TSHI Project helped. There are no office or admin cost here at T.S.H.I. our volunteers see any office cost as part of their ministry or T.S.H.I. will cover the cost.
